COMMERCIAL TEMPERATURE RANGE
and has read access times as fast as 8ns. The FIFO operates in IDT Standard
mode. Two independent 64 x 36 dual-port SRAM FIFOs on board the chip
buffer data in opposite directions. Each FIFO has flags to indicate empty and
full conditions and two programmable flags (Almost-Full and Almost-Empty) to
indicate when a selected number of words is stored in memory. Communication
between each port can bypass the FIFOs via two 36-bit mailbox registers. Each
mailbox register has a flag to signal when new mail has been stored. Parity is
checked passively on each port and may be ignored if not desired. Parity
generation can be selected for data read from each port. Two or more devices
can be used in parallel to create wider data paths.
This device is a clocked FIFO, which means each port employs a
synchronous interface. All data transfers through a port are gated to the
LOW-to-HIGH transition of a port clock by enable signals. The clocks for
each port are independent of one another and can be asynchronous or
coincident. The enables for each port are arranged to provide a simple bidirectional interface between microprocessors and/or buses with synchronous control.
The Full Flag (FFA, FFB) and Almost-Full (AFA, AFB) flag of a FIFO
are two-stage synchronized to the port clock that writes data to its array.
The Empty Flag (EFA, EFB) and Almost-Empty (AEA, AEB) flag of a
FIFO are two stage synchronized to the port clock that reads data from
its array.
The IDT72V3612 is characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C.
Industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) is available by special order.
This device is fabricated using IDT's high speed, submicron CMOS
technology.

ODD/
EVEN
Odd/Even Parity
Select
I
Odd parity is checked on each port when ODD/EVEN is HIGH, and even parity is checked when
ODD/EVEN is LOW. ODD/EVEN also selects the type of parity generated for each port if parity
generation is enabled for a read operation.
PEFA
Port A Parity Error
Flag
O
(Port A)
When any byte applied to terminals A0-A35 fails parity, PEFA is LOW. Bytes are organized as
A0-A8, A9-A17, A18-A26, and A27-A35, with the most significant bit of each byte serving as the
parity bit. The type of parity checked is determined by the state of the ODD/EVEN input. The
parity trees used to check the A0-A35 inputs are shared by the mail2 register to generate parity if
parity generation is selected by PGA. Therefore, if a mail2 read with parity generation is setup by
having W/RA LOW, MBA HIGH, and PGA HIGH, the PEFA flag is forced HIGH regardless of the
A0-A35 inputs.
PEFB
Port B Parity Error
Flag
O
(Port B)
When any byte applied to terminals B0-B35 fails parity, PEFB is LOW. Bytes are organized as
B0-B8, B9-B17, B18-B26, B27-B35 with the most significant bit of each byte serving as the parity
bit. The type of parity checked is determined by the state of the ODD/EVEN input. The parity trees
used to check the B0-B35 inputs are shared by the mail1 register to generate parity if parity
generation is selected by PGB. Therefore, if a mail1 read with parity generation is setup by having
W/RB LOW, MBB HIGH, and PGB HIGH, the PEFB flag is forced HIGH regardless of the state of
the B0-B35 inputs.
PGA
Port A Parity
Generation
I
Parity is generated for data reads from port A when PGA is HIGH. The type of parity generated is
selected by the state of the ODD/EVEN input. Bytes are organized as A0-A8, A9-A17, A18-A26,
and A27-A35. The generated parity bits are output in the most significant bit of each byte.
PGB
Port B Parity
Generation
I
Parity is generated for data reads from port B when PGB is HIGH. The type of parity generated is
selected by the state of the ODD/EVEN input. Bytes are organized as B0-B8, B9-B17, B18-B26,
and B27-B35. The generated parity bits are output in the most significant bit of each byte.
RST
Reset
I
To reset the device, four LOW-to-HIGH transitions of CLKA and four LOW-to-HIGH transitions of
CLKB must occur while RST is LOW. This sets the AFA, AFB, MBF1, and MBF2 flags HIGH and
the EFA, EFB, AEA, AEB, FFA, and FFB flags LOW. The LOW-to-HIGH transition of RST latches
the status of the FS1 and FS0 inputs to select Almost-Full and Almost-Empty flag offset.
W/RA
Port A Write/Read
Select
I
A HIGH selects a write operation and a LOW selects a read operation on port A for a LOW-toHIGH transition of CLKA. The A0-A35 outputs are in the high-impedance state when W/RA is
HIGH.
W/RB
Port B Write/Read
Select
I
A HIGH selects a write operation and a LOW selects a read operation on port B for a LOW-toHIGH transition of CLKB. The B0-B35 outputs are in the high-impedance state when W/RB is
HIGH.

DETERMINING ACTIVE CURRENT CONSUMPTION AND POWER DISSIPATION
The ICC(f) current for the graph in Figure 1 was taken while simultaneously reading and writing the FIFO on the IDT72V3612 with CLKA and CLKB set to
fS. All data inputs and data outputs change state during each clock cycle to consume the highest supply current. Data outputs were disconnected to normalize
the graph to a zero-capacitance load. Once the capacitance load per data-output channel is known, the power dissipation can be calculated with the equation
below.
CALCULATING POWER DISSIPATION
With ICC(f) taken from Figure 1, the maximum power dissipation (PT) of the IDT72V3612 may be calculated by:
PT = VCC x ICC(f) + Σ(CL x (VOH - VOL)2 x fO)

SIGNAL DESCRIPTIONS
RESET
The IDT72V3612 is reset by taking the Reset (RST) input LOW for at
least four port A Clock (CLKA) and four port B Clock (CLKB) LOW-to-HIGH
transitions. The Reset input can switch asynchronously to the clocks. A
device reset initializes the internal read and write pointers of each FIFO and
forces the Full Flags (FFA, FFB) LOW, the Empty Flags (EFA, EFB) LOW,
the Almost-Empty flags (AEA, AEB) LOW and the Almost-Full flags (AFA,
AFB) HIGH. A reset also forces the Mailbox Flags (MBF1, MBF2) HIGH.
After a reset, FFA is set HIGH after two LOW-to-HIGH transitions of CLKA
and FFB is set HIGH after two LOW-to-HIGH transitions of CLKB. The
device must be reset after power up before data is written to its memory.
A LOW-to-HIGH transition on the RST input loads the Almost-Full and
Almost-Empty registers (X) with the values selected by the Flag Select (FS0,
FS1) inputs. The values that can be loaded into the registers are shown in

FIFO WRITE/READ OPERATION
The state of port A data A0-A35 outputs is controlled by the port A Chip
Select (CSA) and the port A Write/Read select (W/RA). The A0-A35 outputs
are in the high-impedance state when either CSA or W/RA is HIGH. The A0A35 outputs are active when both CSA and W/RA are LOW.
Data is loaded into FIFO1 from the A0-A35 inputs on a LOW-to-HIGH
transition of CLKA when CSA is LOW, W/RA is HIGH, ENA is HIGH, MBA
is LOW, and FFA is HIGH. Data is read from FIFO2 to the A0-A35 outputs
by a LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKA when CSA is LOW, W/RA is LOW,
ENA is HIGH, MBA is LOW, and EFA is HIGH (see Table 2). Relevant Write
and Read timing diagrams for Port A can be found in Figure 3 and Figure
6.
The port B control signals are identical to those of port A. The state of
the port B data (B0-B35) outputs is controlled by the port B Chip Select
(CSB) and the port B Write/Read select (W/RB). The B0-B35 outputs are
in the high-impedance state when either CSB or W/RB is HIGH. The B0B35 outputs are active when both CSB and W/RB are LOW.
Data is loaded into FIFO2 from the B0-B35 inputs on a LOW-to-HIGH
transition of CLKB when CSB is LOW, W/RB is HIGH, ENB is HIGH, MBB
is LOW, and FFB is HIGH. Data is read from FIFO1 to the B0-B35 outputs
by a LOW-to-HIGH transition of CLKB when CSB is LOW, W/RB is LOW, ENB
is HIGH, MBB is LOW, and EFB is HIGH (see Table 3). Relevant Write and
Read timing diagrams for Port B can be found in Figure 4 and Figure 5.
The setup and hold time constraints to the port clocks for the port Chip Selects
(CSA, CSB) and Write/Read selects (W/RA, W/RB) are only for enabling write

COMMERCIAL TEMPERATURE RANGE
From the time a word is read from a FIFO, the previous memory location is ready
to be written in a minimum of three cycles of the Full Flag synchronizing clock.
Therefore, a Full Flag is LOW if less than two cycles of the Full Flag synchronizing
clock have elapsed since the next memory write location has been read. The
second LOW-to-HIGH transition on the Full Flag synchronization clock after the
read sets the Full Flag HIGH and the data can be written in the following clock
cycle.
A LOW-to-HIGH transition on a Full Flag synchronizing clock begins the
first synchronization cycle of a read if the clock transition occurs at time
tSKEW1 or greater after the read. Otherwise, the subsequent clock cycle can
be the first synchronization cycle (see Figure 9 and Figure 10).
and read operations and are not related to high-impedance control of the data
outputs. If a port enable is LOW during a clock cycle, the port chip select and
write/read select may change states during the setup and hold time window of
the cycle.
SYNCHRONIZED FIFO FLAGS
Each FIFO is synchronized to its port clock through two flip-flop stages.
This is done to improve flag reliability by reducing the probability of
metastable events on the output when CLKA and CLKB operate asynchronously to one another. EFA, AEA, FFA, and AFA are synchronized by
CLKA. EFB, AEB, FFB, and AFB are synchronized to CLKB. Tables 4 and
5 show the relationship of each port flag to FIFO1 and FIFO2.
EMPTY FLAGS (EFA, EFB)
The Empty Flag of a FIFO is synchronized to the port clock that reads
data from its array. When the Empty Flag is HIGH, new data can be read
to the FIFO output register. When the Empty Flag is LOW, the FIFO is empty
and attempted FIFO reads are ignored.
The read pointer of a FIFO is incremented each time a new word is
clocked to the output register. The state machine that controls an Empty
Flag monitors a write-pointer and read-pointer comparator that indicates
when the FIFO memory status is empty, empty+1, or empty+2. A word
written to a FIFO can be read to the FIFO output register in a minimum of
three cycles of the Empty Flag synchronizing clock. Therefore, an Empty
Flag is LOW if a word in memory is the next data to be sent to the FIFO output
register and two cycles of the port clock that reads data from the FIFO have
not elapsed since the time the word was written. The Empty Flag of the FIFO
is set HIGH by the second LOW-to-HIGH transition of the synchronizing
clock, and the new data word can be read to the FIFO output register in the
following cycle.
A LOW-to-HIGH transition on an Empty Flag synchronizing clock begins
the first synchronization cycle of a write if the clock transition occurs at time
tSKEW1 or greater after the write. Otherwise, the subsequent clock cycle can
be the first synchronization cycle (see Figure 7 and Figure 8).
ALMOST EMPTY FLAGS (AEA, AEB)
The Almost-Empty flag of a FIFO is synchronized to the port clock that
reads data from its array. The state machine that controls an Almost-Empty
flag monitors a write-pointer comparator that indicates when the FIFO
memory status is almost-empty, almost-empty+1, or almost-empty+2. The
almost-empty state is defined by the value of the Almost-Full and AlmostEmpty Offset register (X). This register is loaded with one of four preset
values during a device reset (see Reset section). An Almost-Empty flag is
LOW when the FIFO contains X or less words in memory and is HIGH when
the FIFO contains (X+1) or more words.
Two LOW-to-HIGH transitions of the Almost-Empty flag synchronizing clocks are required after a FIFO write for the Almost-Empty flag to reflect
the new level of fill. Therefore, the Almost-Empty flag of a FIFO containing
(X+1) or more words remains LOW if two cycles of the synchronizing clock
have not elapsed since the write that filled the memory to the (X+1) level.
An Almost-Empty flag is set HIGH by the second LOW-to-HIGH transition
of the synchronizing clock after the FIFO write that fills memory to the (X+1)
level. A LOW-to-HIGH transition of an Almost-Empty flag synchronizing
clock begins the first synchronization cycle if it occurs at time tSKEW2 or
greater after the write that fills the FIFO to (X+1) words. Otherwise, the
subsequent synchronizing clock cycle can be the first synchronization cycle
(see Figure 11 and 12).
FULL FLAG (FFA, FFB)
The Full Flag of a FIFO is synchronized to the port clock that writes data
to its array. When the Full Flag is HIGH, a memory location is free in the
FIFO to receive new data. No memory locations are free when the Full Flag
is LOW and attempted writes to the FIFO are ignored.
Each time a word is written to a FIFO, the write pointer is incremented. The
state machine that controls a Full Flag monitors a write-pointer and read pointer
comparator that indicates when the FIFO memory status is full, full-1, or full-2.
ALMOST FULL FLAGS (AFA, AFB)
The Almost-Full flag of a FIFO is synchronized to the port clock that
writes data to its array. The state machine that controls an Almost-Full flag
monitors a write-pointer and read-pointer comparator that indicates when the
FIFO memory status is almost-full, almost-full-1, or almost-full-2. The almost-full
state is defined by the value of the Almost-Full and Almost-Empty Offset register
(X). This register is loaded with one of four preset values during a device reset
(see Reset section). An Almost-Full flag is LOW when the FIFO contains (64-

X) or more words in memory and is HIGH when the FIFO contains [64-(X+1)]
or less words.
Two LOW-to-HIGH transitions of the Almost-Full flag synchronizing
clock are required after a FIFO read for the Almost-Full flag to reflect the new
level of fill. Therefore, the Almost-Full flag of a FIFO containing [64-(X+1)]
or less words remains LOW if two cycles of the synchronizing clock have not
elapsed since the read that reduced the number of words in memory to
[64-(X+1)]. An Almost-Full flag is set HIGH by the second LOW-to-HIGH
transition of the synchronizing clock after the FIFO read that reduces the
number of words in memory to [64-(X+1)]. A second LOW-to-HIGH
transition of an Almost-Full flag synchronizing clock begins the first synchronization cycle if it occurs at time tSKEW2 or greater after the read that reduces
the number of words in memory to [64-(X+1)]. Otherwise, the subsequent
synchronizing clock cycle can be the first synchronization cycle (see Figure
13 and 14).
MAILBOX REGISTERS
Each FIFO has a 36-bit bypass register to pass command and control
information between port A and port B without putting it in queue. The
Mailbox select (MBA, MBB) inputs choose between a mail register and a
FIFO for a port data transfer operation. A LOW-to-HIGH transition on CLKA
writes A0-A35 data to the mail1 register when a port A write is selected by
CSA, W/RA, and ENA and MBA HIGH. A LOW-to-HIGH transition on CLKB
writes B0-B35 data to the mail2 register when a port B write is selected by
CSB, W/RB, and ENB and MBB is HIGH. Writing data to a mail register sets
the corresponding flag (MBF1 or MBF2) LOW. Attempted writes to a mail
register are ignored while the mail flag is LOW.
When a port's data outputs are active, the data on the bus comes from
the FIFO output register when the port Mailbox select input (MBA, MBB) is
LOW and from the mail register when the port mailbox select input is HIGH.
The Mail1 register Flag (MBF1) is set HIGH by a LOW-to-HIGH transition
on CLKB when a port B read is selected by CSB, W/RB, and ENB and MBB
is HIGH. The Mail2 register Flag (MBF2) is set HIGH by a LOW-to-HIGH
transition on CLKA when port A read is selected by CSA, W/RA, and ENA
and MBA is HIGH. The data in a mail register remains intact after it is read
and changes only when new data is written to the register. Mail register and
Mail Register Flag timing can be found in Figure 15 and Figure 16.
PARITY CHECKING
The port A inputs (A0-A35) and port B inputs (B0-B35) each have four
parity trees to check the parity of incoming (or outgoing) data. A parity failure
on one or more bytes of the input bus is reported by a LOW level on the port
Parity Error Flag (PEFA, PEFB). Odd or even parity checking can be
selected, and the Parity Error Fags can be ignored if this feature is not
desired.
Parity status is checked on each input bus according to the level of the
Odd/Even parity (ODD/EVEN) select input. A parity error on one or more
bytes of a port is reported by a LOW level on the corresponding port Parity Error
Flag (PEFA, PEFB) output. Port A bytes are arranged as A0-A8, A9-A17, A18-
COMMERCIAL TEMPERATURE RANGE
A26, and A27-A35 with the most significant bit of each byte used as the parity
bit. Port B bytes are arranged as B0-B8, B9-B17, B18-B26, and B27-B35, with
the most significant bit of each byte used as the parity bit. When odd/even parity
is selected, a port Parity Error Flag (PEFA, PEFB) is LOW if any byte on the
port has an odd/even number of LOW levels applied to the bits.
The four parity trees used to check the A0-A35 inputs are shared by the
mail2 register when parity generation is selected for port A reads (PGA = HIGH).
When a port A read from the mail2 register with parity generation is selected with
W/RA LOW, CSA LOW, ENA HIGH, MBA HIGH, and PGA HIGH, the port A
Parity Error Flag (PEFA) is held HIGH regardless of the levels applied to the
A0-A35 inputs. Likewise, the parity trees used to check the B0-B35 inputs are
shared by the mail1 register when parity generation is selected for port B reads
(PGB = HIGH). When a port B read from the mail1 register with parity generation
is selected with W/RB LOW, CSB LOW, ENB HIGH, MBB HIGH, and PGB HIGH,
the port B Parity Error Flag (PEFB) is held HIGH regardless of the levels applied
to the B0-B35 inputs (see Figure 17 and Figure 18).
PARITY GENERATION
A HIGH level on the port A Parity Generate select (PGA) or port B
Parity Generate select (PGB) enables the IDT72V3612 to generate parity
bits for port reads from a FIFO or mailbox register. Port A bytes are arranged
as A0-A8, A9-A17, A18-26, and A27-A35, with the most significant bit of
each byte used as the parity bit. Port B bytes are arranged as B0-B8, B9B17, B18-B26, and B27-B35, with the most significant bit of each byte used
as the parity bit. A write to a FIFO or mail register stores the levels applied
to all thirty-six inputs regardless of the state of the Parity Generate select
(PGA, PGB) inputs. When data is read from a port with parity generation
selected, the lower eight bits of each byte are used to generate a parity bit
according to the level on the ODD/EVEN select. The generated parity bits
are substituted for the levels originally written to the most significant bits of
each byte as the word is read to the data outputs.
Parity bits for FIFO data are generated after the data is read from
SRAM and before the data is written to the output register. Therefore, the
port A Parity Generate select (PGA) and Odd/Even parity select (ODD/
EVEN) have setup and hold time constraints to the port A Clock (CLKA) and
the port B Parity Generate select (PGB) and ODD/EVEN have setup and
hold-time constraints to the port B Clock (CLKB). These timing constraints
only apply for a rising clock edge used to read a new word to the FIFO output
register.
The circuit used to generate parity for the mail1 data is shared by the
port B bus (B0-B35) to check parity and the circuit used to generate parity
for the mail2 data is shared by the port A bus (A0-A35) to check parity. The
shared parity trees of a port are used to generate parity bits for the data in
a mail register when the port Write/Read select (W/RA, W/RB) input is LOW,
the port Mail select (MBA, MBB) input is HIGH, Chip Select (CSA, CSB) is
LOW, Enable (ENA, ENB) is HIGH, and port Parity Generate select (PGA,
PGB) is HIGH. Generating parity for mail register data does not change the
contents of the register (see Figure 19 and Figure 20).
